Release v2.1.1

Enhancements

• HttpFactory.Simple operations now support (optional) headers as well

Fixes

• Fixed #39: HttpFactory.Delete does not respect headers

Release v2.1.0

Lots of things changed in the previous release of v2.0.0. Don't worry, this release is much more subtle.

In fact, the only "breaking change" is not really breaking; the API signatures for HttpFactory.Get() and HttpFactory.Delete() now have optional headers. Considering it IS a major interface change, this justifies the major bump for this release to v2.1.0.

Features

• Added support for HttpFactory.Patch
  Including HttpFactory.Patch, HttpFactory.Simple.Patch and HttpFactory.PatchAsync
• Added helper: HttpResponseMessage.Value() and its async variant
  Allows you to quickly read out the value of a response message coming from the HttpFactory (or any of the native HttpClient's responses)

Enhancements

• HttpFactory.Get now supports (optional) headers
  This includes HttpFactory.Get, HttpFactory.Simple.Get and HttpFactory.GetAsync
• HttpFactory.Delete now supports (optional) headers
  This includes HttpFactory.Delete, HttpFactory.Simple.Delete and HttpFactory.DeleteAsync

Release v2.0.0

Release Notes

Version 2.0 is all about a migration to dotnet core. Of course, I've taken the liberty to introduce some serious breaking changes, which you can read all about it further on.

You can grab a fresh copy through:

$ Install-Package Hanssens.Net.Extensions

The original beta of v2.0.0 was released at Aug 18, 2016. On 22 May, 2017 the final was published to NuGt.

Breaking changes

Shaking up the namespaces
Naming is hard. Namespaces are therefor too. Pretty much everything has been reordered, or moved, to better-suited namespaces. Intellisense will help you with this, of course.

Cryptography

• PasswordHash dependency changed from RNGCryptoServiceProvider to RandomNumberGenerator

IO

• CsvExport no longer has a reference to System.Data.SqlTypes

IO/HTTP

• Important: JsonRequest and JsonResponse now reside in 'Hanssens.Net.Http', rather than the IO namespace
• Important: JsonRequest now relies on the HttpClient, rather than HttpWebRequest
• Important: For multiple calls, JsonRequest is now also part of a newly introduced class HttpFactory, which much more efficiently handles open sockets (thanks to The ASP.NET Monsters).
• For single calls, JsonRequest now also accepts an existing HttpClient as an argument

---

Features

• Added license: MIT (or WTFPL, if you prefer)
• Added ReflectionExtensions.IsNull(), to determine if the instance of an object is null (either value type or reference type).
• Added ReflectionExtensions.IsNullableType(), to determine if the type of an object instance is nullable (either value type or reference type).
• Added IEnumerable.Replace() and IList.Replace()
• Added Base64.Encode() and Base64.Decode()
• Added UnitConverters: ConvertFromUnixEpoch() and DateTime.ToEpoch()
• Added IEnumerable extension: IEnumerable.Replace()

Enhancements

• Tests are changed to XUnit, instead of NUnit; simply because the latter had too many cross-platform tooling issues
• Newtonsoft.Json, which is the only dependency, is updated to use v10.x

Fixes

• No fixes in this release

Release v1.2.1
